Free performances will take place on Cockatoo Island on the following dates:

18, 20 March 1 – 5pm
22,24 April – 1 – 5pm
20,22 May – 1 – 5pm

Alexis Teplin’s new performance considers relationships between language, gesture, history and archetypes and asks: ‘When decadence fails us in our quest for utopia, where do we end up?’ Choreographed and structured in response to a space on Cockatoo Island, where her paintings also serve as a backdrop, Teplin proposes a fictional reality; one that is influenced by the fragmentation of language in the digital age.
